About me

I am licensed in South Carolina with 32 years of professional work experience. My purpose is to help you learn to take back control of your thoughts, emotions, and actions so you can achieve the results you want. Taking charge of your life requires you to first look within. Where are you at now? What is your story? Where do you want to go? Our work together will encourage a shift in your thinking, giving you the power to identify new skills and greater self-awareness, resulting in a transformation you never imagined. Stop seeing yourself as broken or something needing to be fixed. In the story of your life, you are an authentic character with worth and value just as you are. Through curiosity, self-compassion, acceptance, courage, and vulnerability, growth and desired change is inevitable. You will become empowered to find relief from stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, and low levels of confidence. It is my belief and intention to help you see how the challenges and obstacles you have experienced have strengthened you, not broken you. Taking this brave first step to look within is your first step to becoming who you want to be.
